Rural roads are often difficult to the novice driver, often due to assessing speed on the corners. See the country road driving tutorial for further advice.
Busy town roads will test your ability at traffic systems such as roundabouts, crossroads and junctions. During the test, residential streets are often taken. These road types are ideal for the test manoeuvre.
The test is to include a single manoeuvre from the possible four. The emergency stop procedure may feature having a 1-in-3 possibility of being requested.
